Where you able to find a CSA near Lausanne? Does anyone know where one is near Zurich? I keep reading that Jan VanderTuin started one of the first ever CSA's-as-we-now-know them called Topinambur near Zurich, but I have not been able to locate this CSA or any others for that matter - any insight would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Can't answer for the German speaking areas but here's some links for French speaking Romandie:

For Lausanne this is a local association: http://www.lejardinpotager.ch/siteAccueil/accueil.php

For Vaud Riviera: http://www.lagrihotte.ch/

For Geneva: http://www.cocagne.ch/ & http://www.affairetournereve.ch/

For Neuchâtel: http://www.fontaine-andre.ch/ & http://www.lopinbleu.ch/

For Jura: http://www.saveurs-de-saisons.ch/ & http://www.clef-des-champs.ch/index.php?page=accueil

Also most Swiss towns hold markets on various weekdays and Saturday for sure, but they're in the morning so that's not the most convenient for most people.

Does anyone know about a similar idea but to get meat, poultry, etc? I'd rather purchase directly from a local farmer than Migros/Coop.
perhaps not a cooperative but a farm that allows for direct purchasing?

However, the produce idea is very appealing to me. Thanks for the links!

Here are two in the area:

I haven't tried either but heard they are good.

cheers!
